Best Fine Dining Restaurants in Congress Park

Our dinner at G&G met and exceeded all expectations. I'd read the reviews and it truly lived up to the hype. The staff was wonderful, knowledgeable, engaging, and worked incredibly well together. The food and drinks were the best we've had. My guy is a huge steak fan through and through, but don't sleep on the cod. We shared the choice ribeye, the wagyu filet, and the cod after having an incredible valentine's started with king crab. I'd recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for an incredible dining experience from start to finish.

We went on a busy night (Valentines) so we were seated at a high charity bar table combo for a sit down dinner. It’s understandable the restaurant had to do this, but if this is done as a regular practice, then I think the diners experience can vary. Overall, the wait staff was knowledgeable about both the food and drink menu and was attentive throughout the meal, bringing the next course when it was time. Our server Alyssa also preemptively knew we were sharing our starters and gave us the appropriate number of silver ware and split our soup orders. I would definitely come back again to try the rest of their menu!

Went for Valentines Day dinner. After setting an alarm to be the first to book, they contacted me multiple times to let me know my reservation wasn’t going to be honored. After contacting me three times with no response from me as I was a little frustrated that I held off on booking other restaurants just to have the opportunity to eat there. Eventually they sent me an alternative time from 7:30 moved to 5 so I sent them a Seinfeld scene about reservations in response and requested a free dessert. They didn’t offer a free dessert for the inconvenience, but did start us with a glass of champagne. 9 course meal, 7 wine pairings (for my girlfriend), 7 cocktails pairings (for myself), with alternative A5 for my girlfriend, and an additional dessert as well. Food and service was all phenomenal (accommodated last minute gluten allergy), but don’t be surprised if your tab comes out to over $1,000 if you want the “full experience”.

Appreciated the two included plates of sandwiches, as we were still hungry after one. Atmosphere was lively and fun. You could tell the restaurant was running like a well oiled machine for Valentines Day but it honestly added to the ambiance for us, as the servers were polite but not obtrusive, and didn’t try to upsell us on anything we didn’t want. Dessert plate was a little too sweet for our palates but was still enjoyable, overall experience was great. Would do again next year.

Matsu consistently has great food. The flavors are always original and everything is so fresh. The wait staff are all so knowledgeable, professional and helpful in picking perfect food.. in our party of 4, they really took care of our one gluten free diner to make sure each dish was modified and explained what they did. Thank you for another fun, delicious dinner.
